New Camera
Tuesday, September 6th, 2005
Thought my twenty-first birthday wasn’t a drunken bash (thankfully) I did get one great present. An Olympus E-300 DSLR camera. 8 Megapixels, two lenses, and all the fixins. I’ve been using it almost non stop for three days and it’s been amazing so far. The quality is obviously wonderful, and having two lenses is great.
I’ve mostly just been playing around with it so far… getting used to all the controls (which are very intuitive) and starting to understand aperture and shutter speed a little better, but I think I got some good shots from around Berkeley. Check out the shoot in the zenphoto gallery.
I can’t tell you how nice it is to finally have a real camera.
